Imelda May, "I'm Alive"

There are several videos of Imelda May singing "I'm Alive" on the World Wide Web. Here's one:

Just the audio:

(written by Imelda May; adapted to follow track)

Smother me with your kisses
Bury me in your arms
Oh the love that this is
has chained me to your charms
Oh lock me up in your heart
Drown me in your eyes
'Cos when you hold me, I'm alive
You wash me clean of all sadness
You cleanse me of all doubt
Now this new born feeling I can't live without
You've drugged me I'm addicted
I'm drunk just on your smile
'Cos when you hold me, I'm alive

I'm alive to each fingertip
To the end of each fine hair
My lips it seems, with every kiss,
Are sending thankful prayers.
You've woken a part of my soul
That's slept for way too long
Now I just can't get enough
I understand love songs
I'll sing to you forever
I'll love you 'til I die
'Cos when you hold me, I'm alive

I'm alive to each fingertip
To the end of each fine hair
My lips it seems, with every kiss,
Are sending thankful prayers.
You've woken a part of my soul
That's slept for way too long
Now I just can't get enough
I understand love songs
I'll sing to you forever
I'll love you 'til I die
'Cos when you hold me, I'm alive
